Zhuang Nainai was taken aback. “Red? I’m not saying that… red isn’t a good color, but summer apparels pay particular attention to embody cool and refreshing elements. Wouldn’t red look too heavy? It’s not a good idea to use red on summer apparels, isn’t it?”
Si Jingyu nodded. “We have already thought about this. It’s true that red is seldom seen on summer apparels, but red is the national color of China. Furthermore, the trend now is retro. A classic red maxi dress would look very festive and retro. I believe the sales would be good.”
“…”
Afterward, Zhuang Nainai continued speaking. However, Mi Nuo had not heard any of it as she had already slipped away quietly. She was so excited and riled up.
Red.
So, the signature color of this summer was red!
She had thought that there was no hope left for today, but she had never expected the tables to turn! God was helping her!

After Mi Nuo left, someone working for Si Jingyu signaled to her from outside.
Si Jingyu could finally heave a sigh of relief. She looked at Zhuang Nainai and smiled. “Alright, she left. But do you think she would fall for our act?”
Zhuang Nainai pursed her lips. “Yes.”
Si Jingyu was taken aback. “This is such an obvious scheme. She will probably see through us, won’t she?”
Zhuang Nainai laughed. “Mi Nuo did not e this far by relying on her own capabilities. She has always relied on her craftiness and taking advantage of others to get what she wants. Furthermore, we explained the reason behind why red is the signature color. What else would she suspect?”
Si Jingyu smiled. “Okay. Speaking of the color red, if not for you, I really wouldn’t have been able to imagine how a row of red summer apparels would look like.”
Zhuang Nainai burst into laughter. “Don’t worry. Red looks too stuffy. People in Beijing prefer fort. It would be so warm to wear red in summer. Aren’t they just torturing themselves?”
Si Jingyu continued nodding. “Not bad, Nainai. I haven’t seen you in a month and you improved.”
When Zhuang Nainai heard this pliment, she pursed her lips and smiled.
Improved. Of course she improved.
Managing a design business with Cheng Sizhe had recently taught her many things that she wasn’t aware of in the past. She also realized how difficult it was to manage a pany.
Just as she was lamenting, her phone suddenly rang. Zhuang Nainai answered the call immediately, only to hear a certain voice on the other end of the call. “Where are you?”
Stunned, Zhuang Nainai looked at the screen and realized that that voice belonged to Xu Dazhi.
Unknowingly, his usual deep voice sounded slightly different over the phone, and this caused her heart to stir slightly.
It was not the first time she had gotten this peculiar feeling.
For the longest time, she would feel an inexplicable urge to cry whenever she saw Xu Dazhi from the back.
She sighed and tossed all these thoughts out of her mind. She could not help but attack him. “I’m on the fourth floor of the Beijing Hotel. Why? Didn’t you take a leave of absence today?”
Upon hearing this, Si Zhengting pursed his lips.
Recently, the pany had been very busy. Si Jingyu could not handle everything by herself, so he’d visited the office these past two days. In addition, Zhuang Nainai’s bewildering distaste toward him made him feel that he ought to figure out what was going on. Hence, he took a few days of leave.
However, after hearing that she was attending the designers’ social event, he could not help but worry for her. What if she was bullied at the event?
This woman seemed to be born to attract all sorts of trouble. She would land herself in several troubles automatically. Thus, after Si Zhengting finished his meeting, he gave her a call.
